exhibition | annabelle marquis at west end

i waited a whole six days to see this exhibition because i was working all week. you'll see from this post and this post and this post that i am obsessed with annabelle marquis' artwork. and this exhibition at the west end gallery in victoria did not disappoint! in fact - i'm embarrassed to say that i want another piece. and for just a second, i kind of wanted one of these pieces instead of the one i have! eek! but it's not my fault ladies! annabelle is using all of these beautiful pinks and reds - the key to my heart.

i've been trying to write more descriptively about the artwork i post. you know - put my expensive degree to work and such. but when it comes to annabelle - the only thing i can describe is feelings. the way her work makes my soul sing. the way my arms seem to reach out of their own accord to literally try and hug the artwork! i feel in awe amidst this astounding beauty...

I can understand why words fail. These are stunning! Thanks for introducing me to her. Oh and I totally get the temporary longing for a new piece from an artist whose work you already own.. if only we had unending resources to buy all of the work we love! ;-)
